Kwantlen Polytechnic University’s faculty union is questioning the absence of the university’s president, reports the Vancouver Sun. The Kwantlen Faculty Association (KFA) sent a message to faculty stating that the official installation of KPU President Bruce Choy has been postponed and that scheduled meetings with Choy have been cancelled. KFA stated that it sent a formal written inquiry to the KPU Board of Governors about the status of the president and requested details on any formal designation of an interim president; Surrey Now-Leader reports that the board has appointed KPU VP Diane Purvey an acting president. The faculty association has also planned a special general meeting next week, which they say will be focused on discussing governance concerns.
